"And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him.
By faith Abraham, when he was called, obeyed by going out to a place which he was to receive for an inheritance; and he went out, not knowing where he was going." (Hebrews 11:6,8)
Have you been asking God what He is going to do? .... God does not tell you what He is going to do; He reveals to you Who He is.
-- O. Chambers, My Utmost for His Highest, Jan. 2

Erika,
God certainly does reveal Himself to us each and everyday if we would just take the time to listen, admire His greatest and all of His blessings. You have truly been a blessing to me and look forward to seeing you again soon.
Thank you for being an inspiration to all of us!

There are three people in that first sentence. For those who have no faith, God doesn't seem to exist (we know He does, but they don't). The next person knows of God but doesn't know Him (clearly this is a murky place to be, God can't reward those who don't know Him - how many of us live here?). The third knows God and seeks to follow Him in faith, not knowing where it'll lead but only that He will lead - Abraham. How tempting it must be, if you only know of God, to ask Him what he'll do for you/me/us/whomever...?
